(Eagle News) – The Japanese government has donated $800,000 to help the people affected by the armed conflict in Marawi City.
The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) said the $800,000 from Japan will help improve sanitation in the war-torn city and in Lanao del Sur.
“Reports of increased incidences of diarrhea including acute watery diarrhea draw attention to scaling up sanitation responses, access to clean water, and reinforce immunization and nutrition services in areas with large concentrations of displaced families,” UNICEF said.
UNICEF has distributed at least 2,000 hygiene kits and more than 2,000 water kits to 20,000 residents affected by the conflict.
